Ethanolamine-induced assembly of microcompartments is required for <i>Fusobacterium nucleatum</i> virulence

2024-11-11

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Many bacteria metabolize ethanolamine as a nutrient source through cytoplasmic organelles named bacterial microcompartments (BMCs). Here we investigated the molecular assembly, regulation, and function of BMCs in Fusobacterium nucleatum – a Gram-negative oral pathobiont that is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes. The F. nucleatum genome harbors a conserved ethanolamine utilization ( e...
